Brown Water In Bridge City

BridgeCity officials say they are working to remedy the brown water coming out of their faucets. Residents took to social media about two weeks ago putting pictures up of sinks and tubs filled with brown, yellow and dirty water on the Facebook group "Bridge City Water Problems. BridgeCityCity Manager Jerry Jones said the city is trying to remedy the problems.. The solution focuses on a chemical the city adds to the water at the treatment plant that was feeding at too high a rate causing the brown water. The city is replacing pumps and lines and flushing the lines. The water issue is on the agenda for tonight’s BridgeCity council meeting.
